About Cottlestone

Cottlestone Apiary is a local-owned business based on a family farm just outside of Duncan, BC. Our honey is drawn from the wildflowers of Vancouver Island, mostly from the area around the Cottlestone farm and from the heritage Keating Farm Estate in the Cowichan Valley, as well as small holdings spread across southern Vancouver Island.

The core of our workforce is made up of over 1.5 million full-time employees, most of them bees, who come from a family tradition of honey farming that stretches back millions of years. They have been raised into the tradition by their honeybee family and friends, and have devoted their lives to the art of honey.
